I would have loved it with all black wheels and black stickers or no stickers on the wheels but sweet ride nonetheless.

Awesome ride! I love the matte black. What's just as awesome is your set of tools in the background!

How tall are you? Because that looks like a massive drop from seat to bar! Nice looking bike, awesome build
